You should change that low quality power supply unit and get one which lies under Tier 1 or 2.
+ E3-1231 v3
+ 16 GB (2x8GB) DDR3

- Power Supply
- Video card ( Still, MSI is better than Asus )
- SDD 120GB ( You will need that 240GB in coming days)
- 16 GB (2x8GB) [ This wont needed for now, you could save some dollars there)
- E3-1231 v3 ( It is better but you won't need Xeon unless you're involved in some heavy editing, rendering, you can only enjoy the hyper threading. So Core i5 is still fine for your budget.

That's a wrong thought you made. No build will secure 3-5 years easily even if you spent $3000 USD (maybe 3 years). We cannot judge a build that will last for such years easily, it depends on how the upcoming games gonna be but without gaming yes it will. This build will able to manipulate games at 1080p for next 2 years.

I agree with Elder,

It all depends on what games at what resolution and quality settings you intend to play in the future. To play games such as, Far Cry 4 BF4, Fallout 4, etc smoothly at ultra settings 1080p, you need to spend over $1000 for a gaming PC. If you want a system that can be upgraded in the future with minimum costs, you need to pick a feature-rich motherboard that can run minimum 2 graphics card at full x16 speed. If I wanted to build a PC that can run most games at 1080p for next 3-5 years, I'd pick i7-5960x and 2x GTX 980 Ti in SLI for now which is way beyond your budget limit.

Anyway, lets get back to the topic. Below are my recommended parts for you.

Does it necessary to get a processor who draws 220 wattage and also comes without heat sink/fan. A good air cooler is needed / water cooler that means invest more dollars. We do not recommend this to people who are tight in overall budget. BTW, (4 cores, 4 cores HT) provide balance performance in gaming. Intel processors performs better in single-core performance & you're paying premium for performance.
